A man identified by federal authorities as Mohamed Sabry Soliman has been charged in what the FBI and local prosecutors describe as a “targeted terror attack” in Boulder, Colorado — a brutal act that left multiple peaceful demonstrators burned and traumatized. Fox-affiliated reporting and local outlets confirmed the federal involvement and the gravity of the criminal complaint.
Witnesses and police say Soliman hurled incendiary devices into a crowd of pro-Israel demonstrators while yelling political slogans, then drove away; investigators later arrested him and found evidence suggesting the act was planned. The victims, many of them elderly, suffered horrifying injuries that no decent community should ever have to see, and the federal complaint frames the episode as deliberate, not random.
Most troubling for patriots who believe in border security is the timeline revealed by investigators: Soliman entered legally on a nonimmigrant visa, overstayed, and at one point was granted temporary work authorization — a sequence that shows how bureaucratic loopholes can be exploited by dangerous actors. This is not a call to bash immigrants broadly; it is a demand for commonsense enforcement so those who abuse our hospitality cannot turn it into a staging ground for violence.
The federal government moved quickly to revoke visas for Soliman’s family and place them in custody as officials investigated whether they had any knowledge or involvement, while Capitol Hill Republicans moved to harness the outrage into concrete policy proposals to crack down on visa overstays. If our leaders refuse to use every lawful tool to remove violent actors and their enablers, they are choosing ideology over the safety of ordinary Americans.
This episode fits a pattern conservatives have warned about for years: porous enforcement and permissive sanctuary policies create openings that criminals exploit, sometimes after repeated deportations or overstays. Law-abiding Americans want legal immigration that benefits the country, not a system that lets dangerous people slip through the cracks and terrorize our towns.
Our response must be twofold: stand with victims and law enforcement as they pursue justice, and demand immediate, effective reforms to immigration enforcement so this kind of horror becomes far less likely. Americans should insist our elected officials stop playing politics with public safety and start delivering border security, detention cooperation, and swift removal for those who pose a danger.
The stakes are simple and stark — if we permit bureaucratic excuses and ideological softness to continue, ordinary citizens will pay the price with their safety. Hardworking Americans deserve leaders who will put public safety first, back the cops, secure the border, and ensure that the rule of law protects our communities.
